Welcome to WOYWDW

Morning all,Bit of a busy day yesterday what with breakfast out with friends, and then dinner with other friends!!! We've been wanting to try the breakfast joint next to, and owned by, Manny's for some time and yesterday was THE day!! It's called EGGCITY and the menu is EGGStensive (!)

I had the pancakes, didn't expect them to be so huge, Koreen had bacon and egg

Hubs had the corned beef hash, Len had more or less the same - hence only three plate pix!

It was such an interesting diner, cool music too

And my fave, an old BSA motorcycle

Sadly, we were not successful in our original mission which was to acquire ladder yarn (with which to crochet a necklace) which then turned in to breakfast - so, not a total bust then!However, I still managed a little light crafting ..... if you saw yesterday's post then you will know that one of my neighbours made me a purple paracord bracelet and I needed to make a thank you card, needless to say, it HAD to feature THANK YOU and PURPLE, and be on the masculine side - I think this fits the bill

My card

And a closer view of the twinkle

And the co-ordinating insert and envelope

Materials used:

White A2 card blank and matching sized envelope

Two pieces of card cut to 9½ x 13cm and two pieces of black card cut to 10 x 13½cm, for matting

Such a shame. I could have helped you out with those scrummy looking pancakes if I wasn't all the way over here. They look so delicious. Slurp! Love your CAS card too mate. I'm sorry to say my desk is looking quite a lot like yours (and, if we're laying our cards on the table - well I would if I could find a space - the floor is looking quite a lot like that too. Tsk Tsk...)

What a fantastic CAS! Love it!! So glad you came Through ‘The Craft Room Door’ to play! Can't wait to see more of your talent! Just as an FYI – the new TCRD magazine was released online today! Make sure you check it out!!Hugs,Karen C

I'm a floating list manager

About Me

I'm married to an avid radio control model plane enthusiast - every man should have a hobby, especially if it leaves me free to craft without GUILT!!!! We are both free to indulge our hobbies and mine is rubber stamping. Mostly I make cards and ATC's though I've been gradually getting more and more in to mixed media, art journalling and scrap booking!. I'll have a go at most crafts . . . some even more than once!!!

Housekeeping!
